Tree People talks about Sustainable Community.
On June 11,
Transition Town LA will host Andy Lipkis, founder and
president of
TreePeople, in a discussion about the role of community
in making Los Angeles
more resilient. Lipkis will explore what is a
functioning community forest,
and using successful TreePeople
campaigns as models, he will describe his
organization’s next steps in
retrofitting Los Angeles’ homes to create a more
sustainable water
system.
Joanne Poyourow, founder of Environmental
Change Makers, will place
this talk within the context of Transition Town’s
positive response to
climate change and peak oil. The dialogue that follows
will allow for
questions and participation of the audience.
